“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.”

Hi! I'm Ulla, and I have been educating people just like you for a long time.

You know, people who are super eager to learn, to make a difference and who are not afraid of some good ole elbow grease kind of hard work. (If you'd like to read more about me, check out my "About" page)

I once was a newbie who wanted to learn more. I wanted to find the best schools and the best teachers. Back in the day the phonebook was really the only answer, but I have to admit the internet has not made it any easier! There are so many different classes and options and promises it makes you want to pull your hair out. How the hell are we supposed to know what is good and what is a complete waste of our time? They all sound so freakin promising!

Or what about the straight up lies! Who hasn't heard of "Single day certifciation" or "Become a professional makeup artist in 5 days"? ... (you may insert a vomit emoji here)

When you are serious about building a career as a makeup artist, especially in the film industry, the last thing you need is answers that leave you more confused than when you started your research.

So here's my promise to you: My classes and programs WILL deliver. I don't play around. I don't pretend. I'm kind, and I'm here for you.

My job is to get you unstuck, to push you forward on your career, to show you how effin powerful you are, and how to have fun while doing it.

I KNOW we all have what it takes.

If you like the sound of that, then let's go BIG!

A first of its kind,The MMM is a 6 month, online program that is taught via live calls and videos.

Now you maybe thinking: “Here come the videos… It’s the same as every online program out there!”.

But here is THE difference: I’m not going to send you videos to watch. YOU are going to submit videos of your work to me. That’s right, the responsibility of videos falls on you.

Here’s how it all works:

We have a live call on a topic

You have one week to complete the task, film it and upload your video to our platform

We’ll review the video in the beginning of each call (via email if you choose to learn in a group)

Please note: The platform allows other students to view your work too. I promise you will find this very helpful! I strongly encourage my students to get to know each other, even if you chose to do the private program with me. WE are a community, and with the support from each other we are better and stronger.

Hmmm. Sounds good, but...

What exactly do I learn in The MMM?

Module One (4 weeks)

We start by figuring out where you are at on your journey. Yes, you have to be a makeup artist to even attend The MMM, but we all start in different places and I want to be able to help you by meeting you where you currently are. Even in group program you’ll find that The MMM is very personalized learning.

We want to figure out, TOGETHER, where you stand regards to skincare, tools, makeup products and techniques.

Next we move on to basic makeup for TV & film

How to create a simple daytime look

That might sound super basic, and that "list" looks awfully short, but you’ll be surprised how different this is from your everyday makeup, and how much thought will go into creating something so simple.

From here we switch gears a bit and learn about corrective makeup.

As the name suggests, you will be creating several different looks that will correct something. That doesn’t always mean there is something “wrong” with the face you are working with, it might be that the lighting used is creating discoloration, distorting the shape or it could be something as easy as covering a pimple.

No matter what, you will be immersed in anatomy and color theory in this module.

Module Two (10 weeks)

This is where we move on to more theoretical studies of TV and film makeup. Among other things, you will learn

How to break down a script (and what that means)

How to create looks from that break down

How to work in conjunction with directors, producers, wardrobe designers and actors while creating looks for the project

We will also dive deep into:

Character creation

History

Chemistry (don’t worry, this is more about occupational safety than memorizing chemical names and formulas)

Budgeting, petty cash

Continuity

Set etiquette

Module Three (10 weeks)

you will be submerged into the world of 3D makeup.

Think:

Small 3D looks (scars, small injuries, illness)

Facial hairpieces (mustache, beard, sideburns)

Pre-made prosthetic pieces (application, removal, maintenance)

We will also talk about your career and how to go about it on this module.

How to write your resume when you don’t have any film experience yet

How to set up your website

How to contact industry insiders, and also WHO to contact

The last 3-4 weeks of the program will be spent pulling together everything you have learned.

You will get a script (everyone will get their own, no 2 students will get the same script)

You will break down said script

You will create the looks for each character and decide how these looks evolve or change throughout filming

You will create a budget

You will create a calendar for additionals needed days

You will do a camera test

You will create a continuity book

During the final phase you will work with other students, even if you chose to work privately with me, and/ or with other industry professionals currently working in the film industry.

*At the end of the 6 month study period, based on performance during studies, you might have an opportunity to be paired with a director, or a production company, for an intern/ assistant position depending on your skills and results of evaluations.

Oh, did you think I was done?

How about I throw in a few bonuses. Cause I can. How's this?

*One year access to all the opportunities on Mandy. com ($200 value)

*One year access to all the opportunities on Production Weekly ($750 value)

and because everyone likes options, i got options for you too!

GROUP EXPERIENCE

($5,000/ 6 months)

You will

Have one LIVE group call every two weeks (I hold the calls couple of times a week, I know not everyone can make the same time)

Have your videos reviewed by me and my team

Have your videos commented on via email

As much as I would love to just take your money, honey, I can't.

I stand behind ANY of my programs or classes 100%, but they're not for everyone. I want to know that you're fully committed not only to my program but to life on a set. It's not for the faint of heart. That's why I need you to calm down and fill out the application.

After I review your application, my team and I will decide if you are a good fit for this program. Whatever the decision is, we will be in touch! You will either get an invitation to an interview, or I will recommend another program for you.

I really, really appreciate you even considering my program and I hope I get to work with you VERY SOON!
